Active Investment Management, LLC employs proven proprietary quantitative models to determine the best times to be exposed to market risk. These models produce daily signals that are available to the institutional asset management community.

Volatility

This model trades the XIV and the VXX ETNs. These represent the long and short sides of the Volatility Index (VIX) Designed to be exteremly aggressive, as volatility can easily move several percentage points daily, large swings in asset values are expected. Managing the downside uses stop losses.

Active NDX

This model is designed to aggressively take long or short positions in the NASDAQ 100 index using a leveraged (2 times) mutual fund. On a daily basis, signals will be generated based on the level of the index as well as relationships between the index and several custom indicators.

Our research has determined that there are four distinct market conditions, Long term up trend coupled with a short term up trend, long term up with short term down, short term up with a long term down, and short term down with a long term down. To accurately decide when to enter a trade, the model has four distinct long signals and four distinct short signals to coincide with our definition of the above market conditions. The 2xOTC model will at times follow market trends (trend following) but will also be predictive of trends (mean regression).

Active Europe

This model trades the Rydex Europe 1.25 Strategy Fund using two separate models in one discipline. Each component can individually trigger a long signal in "bull" markets while both components must trigger a long signal in "bear" markets.

As this strategy takes only long positions, the more conservative approach allows a more discriminating selection of when to enter a trade. Extensive back-testing and actual trading experience has shown that the combination of the two models provides for a greater long term return than either model used individually

Conservative ﻿Europe

As above, this model trades the Rydex Europe 1.25 Strategy Fund. The model is designed to act as conservatively as possible while still providing an excellent total return over the long term.

This model takes only long positions on a relatively infrequent basis designed to predict short term (1-2 days) upward moves in the European Markets as measured by the S&P Euro Stoxx 50 Index.

Conservative SP

Conservative SP trades The Rydex NOVA Fund. The model is designed to be extremely selective, exposing the assets to market risk only when the risk/reward profile is statistically very high.
